Abstract:
Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a new medical imaging tool, which was born at the beginning of the 21st century. Compared with traditional imaging techniques, the preliminary research indicates that MPI shows higher sensitivity, resolution and imaging speed. This article presents the principle of MPI, its recent development from three different perspectives is introduced.
